NEW YORK - November 3, 2011 - Look out Betty, Cloris and Colin - there's a new Bickerman in town! Horror icon Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger/Nightmare on Elm Street) will star in the upcoming Syfy Saturday Original Movie Lake Placid: The Final Chapter, it was announced today by Thomas Vitale, Executive Vice President, Programming and Original Movies, Syfy.
Following Betty White, Cloris Leachman, and Colin Ferguson -- who were all part of the Bickerman clan in previous Lake Placid movies -- Englund will play Jim Bickerman, a poacher looking to score a big break on hides and eggs from these rare crocs.
